Toothbrush stand
About this project
The Toothbrush Stand is a small, 3D printed device that stabilized a toothbrush on a flat surface, allowing the user to easily apply toothpaste with one hand.
The challenge
The Shepherd Center strives to increase patients' independence
when performing activities of daily living such as using a toothbrush.
Who it helps
Intended users of this Toothbrush Holder are individuals with hemiplegia, paralysis on one side of the body.
How it works
The Shepherd Center strives to increase patients' independence when performing activities of daily living such as using a toothbrush.
The Toothbrush Holder limits the need for two-handed toothpaste application by using an angled holder rather than a vertical holder.
The Toothbrush Holder is a small, 3D printed device that uses a large base and angled holder to allow the user to easily apply toothpaste with one hand.
